Recent Overview

Materials for public works performed well; earnings contribution from two subsidiaries acquired in the prior fiscal year drove substantial increases in both revenue and profit

During the cumulative nine months of FY2026 (ending June 2026), net sales reached ¥35,870 million (up 34.8% year on year) and operating profit reached ¥7,109 million (up 19.2% year on year). Material supply related to public works progressed smoothly, with soil reinforcement materials and marine-related materials such as turbidity prevention screens performing well. Although the marine processing business was affected by a decline in selling prices due to deteriorating market conditions, the two subsidiaries acquired in the prior fiscal year performed steadily, contributing to the increase in both sales and profit for the segment as a whole.

Growth Drivers

  • Expansion of business scope through M&A (increased revenue and profit effect from earnings contribution of two subsidiaries consolidated in the prior fiscal year)
  • Early synergy creation through PMI advancement of subsidiaries acquired in the prior fiscal year (collaboration between sales and development departments across group companies)
  • Steady orders for nonwoven fabrics for medical and sanitary materials
  • Securing stable orders through expanded product offerings at MAEDA KOSEN VIETNAM CO., LTD.
  • Promotion of capital investment and R&D based on the medium-term management plan "Global Vision ∞ PART II"

Risks

  • Risk of fluctuation in civil engineering materials demand due to reductions in public works budgets or changes in execution timing
  • Continued weakness in selling prices in the marine processing business due to deteriorating market conditions
  • Sluggish demand for some products in the agricultural materials business
  • Risk of increased costs due to surging raw material and energy prices
  • Risk of delayed progress in PMI (post-merger integration) following M&A
  • Risk of supply chain disruption due to geopolitical risks such as heightened tensions in the Middle East
